The efficient Git Multitasker
Maintaining momentum in a dynamic development environment often feels challenging with a flurry of features, hotfixes, and pull requests demanding attention. This talk introduces Git Worktrees, a powerful yet underutilized feature, offering a robust workflow solution especially beneficial in managing large monorepos.
During this session, we will illuminate methods to establish a well-structured development environment using Git Worktrees and demonstrate seamless task transitioning without the need for stashing. Attendees will gain comprehensive insights into Worktrees’ utility and explore how its adoption can significantly heighten development productivity and workflow optimization. Suitable for developers eager to bolster their workflow management strategies and enhance operational efficiency. Empower yourself with the knowledge of Git Worktrees to master your software development workflow.
This talk is for any software engineer that uses Git as part of a team.
Unleashing TypeScript’s Compiler API
Let's be honest: manipulating or refactoring a large codebase can sometimes make even the best of us break into a cold sweat. But did you know that TypeScript's Compiler API can be your secret weapon in tackling this challenge?
We'll start off by breaking down the key concepts - from the Compiler API and codemods to code formatting - and unveil how they all tie back to the Abstract Syntax Trees (ASTs). Using a real-world example from my work on a Developer Experience team, we'll dive into how we can leverage the TypeScript tooling to our advantage. We'll query our own code to get a clear understanding of scope and then I'll walk you through automating far-reaching changes to your code with confidence, whether that spans hundreds of files or just a handful.
In this talk, you'll not only leave with a solid grasp of how to make the TypeScript Compiler API work for you and how to apply that work in a practical way. Let's demystify the ASTs and transform your coding experience!
This talk is intended for mid-senior level TypeScript/JavaScript developers or developers interested in developer experience and tooling.
